The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) Centre said on Thursday that a fire had been reported in the engine room of a tanker off the coast of Oman.

Local authorities reported the incident occurred about 20 nautical miles northeast of Sohar, Oman, the UKMTO warning said. There were no reports of casualties or environmental damage.

The latest maritime incident comes one day after three Indian sailors aboard the M/T Settebello oil tanker were killed by a U.S. strike.

U.S. Central Command said the Palau-flagged vessel violated its ongoing blockade by attempting to transport oil from Iran.

The U.S. fired precision munitions at the ship's engine room "after the crew repeatedly failed to comply with directions from American forces," CENTCOM said in a post to X.

Sarbananda Sonowal, India's shipping minister, confirmed the "deeply unfortunate" incident in a post to X and said that the bodies of the three seafarers were recovered.

The Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) -- a newly created Iranian entity set up to manage shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and charge fees for vessels transiting the waterway -- said in a post on X on Friday that the Strait would be closed "until further notice."

The PGSA's announcement comes after U.S. Central Command denied reports of the Strait's closure overnight.

The PGSA cited "tensions caused by the aggressive U.S. forces" and an announcement by the Iranian armed forces for the decision to close the waterway. It asked "applicants who have obtained transit permits to remain patient and await further notice."
